Can a notary perform notarizations outside Arizona?

Explanation:
Arizona notaries are commissioned by the Secretary of State and can perform notarial acts only within the state. The signer must appear before the notary in Arizona, so notarizing a document outside the state isn’t permitted under standard practice. The other options rely on ideas (outside the state, within the signer’s county, or a county clerk permit) that don’t align with how a notary’s authority is defined in Arizona. If remote notarization is involved, it requires separate authorized procedures beyond the usual in-person notarizations.
